At least two people have been killed in Uganda's capital, Kampala, in clashes between police and rioting supporters of a traditional king. Police fired tear gas at the protesters who hurled stones and burned tyres. One report said at least seven people died.
The demonstrators protested against the government's attempts to stop the king of Buganda from visiting a region near Kampala where violence was feared. The king has a big influence among the Baganda, Uganda's largest ethnic group. At least two people were killed in Thursday's riots in central Kampala, police and witnesses said. But a photographer working for the Associated Press news agency said he had counted seven bodies, adding that all the victims appeared to be civilians.
